You can easily use a rusty texture image to add rust to your elements or shape, but rust is not always the same, right? So you would need to have many different images to have different types of rust.
This script will randomly generate a rust texture in the yellow/orange tones that will be different for every single run of the script. So even if you are using the same starting shape, you will always get something different.

As a freebie, I created half a dozen cogwheels (using the Cogwheel script too) and rusted them all. I added a plain bevel on the edges. Each cogwheel is 1000 pixels wide so you can resize them as needed.
